These are the trends in boys' hairstyles

Gone are the days when everyone wore the same haircut. Nowadays there is a wide range of new haircuts that are not only easy to maintain but also look good.

The undercut gets a fashionable update

The undercut is one of the most popular hairstyles in recent years. With good reason, because the haircut combines the advantages of long and short hair. The section of hair at the front frames the face, while the longer hair at the top creates more volume. The hair is kept very short on the sides. The two sections of hair are visually separated by a cool hair tattoo. Lightning, stars or simply a line – different motifs can be shaved depending on your mood.

Retro hairstyles: Long bangs with side parting

Retro hairstyles are making a real comeback this year. The medium-length hair inspired by Justin Bieber's "Baby" era is enjoying great popularity. A side parting and long bangs make the haircut so appealing.

Faux Mohawk: The Mohawk cut with a difference

The Faux Mohawk is a modern boy's hairstyle in which the sides are only partially shaved. The rest of the hair is subtly layered and the section at the top is deliberately kept longer. This way you get the look you want and the haircut still looks more suitable for everyday use. A pinch of provocation and a welcome change from the classic undercut – this is how the Faux Mohawk can best be described.

Pompadour: Suitable for everyday use and yet elegant

The pompadour haircut was forgotten for a long time. But he has been celebrating a comeback for a few years now. The special appeal of the hairstyle lies in the numerous styling options. The top hair is about 6 cm long and is traditionally combed back; the hair on the sides is shortened to 1 cm.

Fade cut for casual look

The fade cut is another modern take on the undercut. The transition is seamless, the hair is longer on top and significantly shorter on the sides. Nevertheless, it somehow looks more natural and is also easier to care for when the hair grows out.

Surfer Hair: Perfect for guys with wavy hair

The surfer look is not just popular with adults. The casual beach hairstyle will also look great on children with wavy hair. What is typical for the haircut is that the hair does not need any styling and looks as natural as possible. Variants with and without bangs can be achieved.

Buzz Cut: An uncomplicated boys hairstyle

With a buzz cut, the hair is shaved down to 2 mm to 3 mm. The scalp is visible and can breathe better, especially in summer. The hairstyle is very easy to care for and great for everyday use. The best time for a haircut is spring. In summer you wear them very short and in autumn you let them grow out. Although the hairstyle has a special appeal, it does not suit all boys equally. If you have protruding ears or light blonde hair, it's better to choose a different haircut.

Long bangs are totally on trend

Children's hairstyles with long bangs are on the rise this year. Many boys between the ages of 5 and 12 wear their hair medium and long, with curtain bangs or side partings like Justin Bieber. Man buns, in which the top hair is tied up in a knot at the top, are also possible.

French cut for teenagers

French Cut is the name of the trendy undercut haircut with a seamless transition between the long top hair and the shaved side areas. The hair is combed forward. As far as the bangs are concerned – variants with micro bangs as well as extra long bangs are possible. This haircut is ideal for teenagers who want to spice up the classic undercut.

In 2024, short haircuts will be in the spotlight. Many variations of the popular undercut are enjoying increasing popularity. The Mohawk is also gaining popularity again. The buzz cut has also – quite surprisingly for many – crept into the top 10 most popular haircuts of the year. As far as long hair is concerned, there are two boys' hairstyles to choose from: the everyday surfer look and shoulder-length hair with extra long bangs.
